[QUOTE="fender66, post: 164681, member: 2990"] Marc, That motor will push the boat, with you in it. I know that because I have a 1648 with a 40HP jet on it. With the jet, you lose about 30 percent of your HP and that would put mine about 28HP from the jet. I can load it down with 2 people and go just fine. I'm not going to break speed records, but it still does fine. If it was a little less, say, 20HP like what you are considering....I still believe it would work. Also, there are a LOT of people on this site that have 9.9 HP motors and they seem happy. Some even power by trolling motor only. It all depends on what for and where you want to use it. [/QUOTE]
